Topic: Corona Virus and out of state plans (Read 6532 times)

I wonder which state will initiate a bail-out clause that will allow for refunds or point reinstatement. I bet there are more than one state wondering what to do right about now.

Worst case, the NR applications tank and the department is in financial trouble. Most, if not all game agencies should be planning for a big reduction in general fund money this year if they are smart. Every state is in financial trouble, WA will be at the top of the list due to our tax structure.

I had plans to take it easy on the out of state hunting this year with a new family member that was born February 25th. The plan was Colorado and Montana mule deer, but with all this going on and recently losing my job. It looks like I'll be in Montana since I already applied and points only for Colorado and Nevada. Unless this things blows away sooner than later I might try to get a Colorado tag in the secondary draw....

Was planning on taking my kid for his very first deer hunt to Montana this year but with the crazy amount of economic uncertainty I donít know if I can pull the trigger!

the nice thing about Youth in MT is you don't have to put them in for the draw with you. You can buy their deer tag any old time before you go. It requires a licensed "sponsor" though so you would still need a tag.

Ok awesome! I was given some fake news on how the system works then thanks for the clarification

I am starting to think this virus could wreak havoc with fall hunting seasons across the west. Exponentially more hunters coming from all corners of the US in the fall when virus makes a second wave...bet several states are thinking about this right now.
